Hi
Thank you for asking HCM
I have gone through your query. Your problem can be due to skin infection by bacteria or due to psoriasis. How the leisons look like? Is it with puss filled bumps?If yes, then it can be most likely from infection. If there is silvery looking scaling then it is most likely psoriasis. It is better to have a look with dermatologist to rule out the condition. Also check your blood sugar levels. Those who get uncontrolled blood sugar also will get such episodes.
Hope this may help you.Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
